Yield:
1 loaf (8 slices)

Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray

  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten

  • 1 ½ cup sugar

  • ¾ cup canned pumpkin

  • ½ cup half-and-half

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup fresh blueberries

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup chopped pecans

  • Maple syrup (optional)

Directions

  1. Coat a 4-qt. oval slow cooker with cooking spray; line bottom and sides with parchment paper. In a medium bowl combine next five ingredients (through oil).

  2. In a large bowl stir together next four ingredients (through salt). Add pumpkin mixture all at once to flour mixture; stir just until combined. Toss blueberries with 1 Tbsp. flour; fold into batter. Spoon into cooker.

  3. Cover and cook on high 1 hour. If possible, give crockery liner a half-turn. Sprinkle bread with pecans. (Carefully lift lid so condensation from lid does not drip onto bread.) Cover and cook on high 1 to 1 1/2 hours more or until a toothpick comes out clean.

  4. Turn off cooker. Remove lid. Cover opening of cooker completely with paper towels; replace lid. Cool 30 to 45 minutes. If desired, serve with maple syrup.
